• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Hmmm ive been trying to think of any other bikes that use that master cylinder? I dont really wana start chopping them up aswel.
 
You will need a lever made for a Ducati road bike. I have an ASV C5 on my 08 SMR brake and a ASV C6 on my clutch. Both in shorties. Work great and feel good. There are some posts on supermotojunkie.com that give the exact ASV part numbers. I don't remember mine off hand.

Also, if you call ASV or email them you pic, they will tell you which lever you need right away. Great customer service through them.
 
How much these ASV levers set you back? I dont really wana pay over the top price for a lever, do and of the ktms use it?
 
Since I bought the C6 (latest and greatest) it was $90 and the brake was $95 I think. Expensive, yes, but worth every penny to me.

The clutch is the same as most KTM's. You just have to make sure you get a KTM model with a MAGURA clutch.

Here is the application list for husky's.

Remember, that you cannot use that brake lever. It is only for the offroad models. NOT SMR's.

Here is the application list for the brake lever

BRC555 is the part number that fits the SMR Brembo brake.

There are other people out that make levers cheaper. Also, ASV make a F3 which is forged, instead of cut out of billet and cheaper. Use the application guide to look for other ones. Midwest Mountain engineering makes a clutch lever that nice and cheap.
 
Yeah abit on the expensive side im really only after the brake side, i know the clutch is the same as i have owned 3 KTM i was just thinking about what the 690 smc uses? Il look into the asv and will have to decide, thankyou for the help it is most appriciated
